either that or they don't make jet fuel like they used to

in before "um, actually, the B-25 was a propeller-driven aircraft and therefore obviously did not use jet fuel"

I mean that and a b25 weighs like 40k lbs and a 767 weighs like 400k lbs, and flies twice as fast.

Very very different crashes.

The planes that hit the twin towers were bigger, going faster, and had more fuel.

The twin towers themselves were also built with a different skyscraper design at well that used fewer steel beams. I don't remember what the names of the skyscraper design types were but I remember a 9-11 history channel program going into it.
